Description

This is part 4 of 4. Designing for low-power in today’s high-speed Intel Stratix 10 and Arria 10 FPGA designs is more important than ever. Knowing the final design’s power usage early in the design process is necessary for making power supply and device cooling decisions. This training will give you the knowledge and tools you need to perform highly accurate estimates of power usage and what to do to optimize power. In this final part, you'll learn about the SmartVoltage ID (SmartVID) feature available in select devices. SmartVID can automatically adjust the device's own core voltage to factory-programmed values lower than the nominal voltage. This is done as changes are detected in the device's operating temperature.
